80 Ghanaians deported from Libya

The deportees arrived at the Kotoka International Airport Thursday, July 27, 2017.

Some of them claimed that they had been in prison for as long as eight months before their deportation.

In April this year, more than 300 Ghanaians living in Libya returned to Ghana.

According to them, they have been struggling to cope with the harsh conditions in the war-ravaged North African country.

Many of them who travelled to Libya on foot through the Libyan Desert to seek greener pastures said that they were disappointed at the lawlessness in that country.

They have, therefore, pleaded with other Ghanaians not to attempt going there.

They also used the opportunity to call on the government to help other Ghanaians who are still stranded in Libya to return home.

About three Ghanaians were earlier in April reported dead in Libya with over 500 people more stranded in that country.
